Hi,
1. You should not be passing expressions like "exitAtStop = True" for
parameters. Just pass True. The "=" part is for documentation only.
2. You don't need a loop here. ApplyStop accepts dynamic stop values via
an array. Try the following (assuming that Buy does not have any
redundant signals - i.e. use ExRem):
PriceBought = ValueWhen(Buy, Close);
Threshold = Close >= 1.05 * PriceBought;
Threshold = Flip(Threshold, Sell);

Stop =  IIF(Threshold, 0, 1);
ApplyStop(stopTypeLoss, stopModePercent, Stop, 1, true);

option is to have a stoploss that goes to break-even point after a
couple of days (lets say 10 days) and stays there.
